Once upon time, there was two group of friends that dislike each other. One group of friend had a African Elephant and an African Forest Elephant. Another group of friends contained a Cross River Gorilla, Chimpanzee, and a Mountain Gorilla. But there was one issue, Chimpanzee was friend with the elephants but Chimpanzee’s friends never knew they were friends. They all lived in the rainforest but some of them do not know where some of their enemies live, but they all live in the rainforest. One day, the Cross River Gorilla went to Mountain Gorillas house and knocked on the door and said “Mountain Gorilla, do you want to try and raid someone's house or try and kill some animals?” Mountain Gorilla responded, “No thank you, I rather stay at my house and relax.” Cross River Gorilla walked away and went to Chimpanzees house and said “Chimpanzee, do you want to try and raid someone's house or try and kill some animals?” Chimpanzee responded excited, “Yes, we could also try and find some water. I'm running low on water.” Cross River Gorilla responds, “Ok let's go.” …show more content…
They proceed to walk around the Rainforest and they found an African Forest Elephant and a African elephant walking with each other.
Chimpanzee told Cross River Gorilla very quietly, “We need to go now, if we don’t start leaving this area, we will get killed!” Cross River Gorilla and Chimpanzee started to run away from the two Elephants. The got to Cross River Gorillas house because he lived near a river. Chimpanzee got some water from the river that Cross River Gorilla lived
near. Chimpanzee got his water from Cross River Gorillas river that he lived near. While they were walking back to Chimpanzee’s house, they found the two elephants houses. Cross River Gorilla said “I think their the elephant’s houses. We should go and raid there houses and leave.” Chimpanzee responded, “You could talk the stuff while I am watching your back.” While Cross River Gorilla was at the second house of the elephants, they came back and Cross River Gorilla and Chimpanzee. They ran away without getting caught. When they were running back to Chimpanzees house they split the stuff then Cross River Gorilla started to hed to his house. But on the way Cross River Gorilla started to drop some of his stuff he got while raiding the elephant’s houses. The two Elephants when inside of their huge houses and they oddly noticed that some of the stuff are missing some of their stuff. African Forest Elephant when to African Elephant’s house and said “Do you want to try and find the animals or any clues that someone did to our house?” African Elephant agreed and started to explore near their houses and they oddly found some of their stuff on the floor. But in a strait line. They followed the trail of their stuff and it led to Cross River Gorillas house. African Elephant asked “should we crush their houses for revenge?” African Forest Elephant responds “Ok lets do it.” They crush all of Cross River Gorillas stuff and house into nothing.
Dr. Goodall is a well-known British primatologist who has discovered a substantial amount about primates in her many years of research. She has written numerous books, including one that we will be going into depth about called, “Through a Window.” Her book contains personal experiences, research findings, and even pictures to help the readers visualize her scientific breaking moments from her thirty years with the chimpanzees of Gombe. She states that there is are minor differences, and several similarities between humans and the chimpanzees. We will discuss these differences and similarities through their social behavior, intellectual ability, and emotions. To conclude, examine Goodall’s research to adopt what her findings can tell us about our early ancestors, and whether or not her study coincided to the steps of scientific methodology.
Watch out dolphins because you may no longer be the most intelligent animals anymore! Elephants, one of our lands largest creatures, are taking your spot! In the video, Elephants Show Cooperation, the article, Elephants Can Lend a Helping Trunk, and the passage, from Elephants Know When They Need a Helping Trunk in a Cooperative Task, the authors illustrate the intelligence of these pachyderms. They all show an experiment that proves this claim. Elephants “join the elite club of social cooperators: chimpanzees, hyenas, rooks, and humans.” Their cognitive ability even surprises the researchers. They not only make wise decisions, but also work well with their companions. All three sources depict the sagacity of these remarkable creatures.
Have you ever wondered how animals interact and work together to get a job done? Many times, animals put their minds together to complete a task. But what many people do not realize is that animals interact with one another just as humans would. In many instances, people don’t realize the amount of intelligence and common sense that animals, such as the elephant, possess. The study of elephant’s thoughts and thinking were explained and backed up through three different mediums. This information was explained through articles, videos, and passages. Combined, these pieces of work clarified what the experiment was, what it was testing, the purpose behind it, and how the different pieces were
Elephants Can Lend a Helping Trunk is a passage about a study preformed to test elephants' abilities to collaborate. It explains the basic process of the experiment, and provided in-depth analysis of the results. It made many comparisons between the study and other studies and research and noted the opinions of numerous professionals, which helped show the significance of the test's findings. The purpose of this passage was to primarily to be an entertaining article, and secondarily to inform the reader about the experiment. It was very similar to Elephants Console Each Other in tone and style, but differed more from Elephants Know When They Need a Helping Trunk, mainly because it was less informational, and more enjoyable.
...ve with her powers. In general no matter the conflict that arises the elephants always stick together and never become mad at one another. This collectiveness/family unity is a great message to any reader searching for life answers.
This article, titled Common Ground, written by Barbara Smuts, points out the main differences between humans and apes, such as our upright stance, large brains, and capacity for spoken language and abstract reasoning. However, the main point of this article is to emphasize the many similarities that apes share with us. Smuts goes into great detail about how human social and emotional tendencies are very reflective in the family of apes.
There are contrasts in tool kits used by different groups of chimpanzees, which seem to be a result of the environment in which they live as well as information that is shared by the group. For example, in 1973 it was reported that chimpanzees in Gombe did not use hammer stones, but those of Cape Palmas did. We will explore the tool use of Chimpanzees from the wild, including Gombe, Tai National Forest, and the Congo Basin---and contrast those with Chimpanzees in captivity in locations of Zoo’s both in the United States and abroad.
The second step shown in these monkey’s evolutionary progress is that now these animals appear to be goal oriented. Like mentioned previously, these monkeys had been working for themselves. They would do what ever they could to benefit themselves, get food, and have a nice place to sleep. Yet, once the changes begin and they have a leader, the monkeys begin to act as a group. They are more coordinated and it seems that their living style has changed from anarchy to monarchy. They attack a larger animal and kill it as a group. In turn, the raw meat is then split between the monkeys and everyone gets a share.
The gorilla, named Ishmael, can communicate telepathically. Communicating with him in this fashion, the narrator learns Ishmael’s background - in which the gorilla was stolen from the wild and displayed in a menagerie, then rescued by a Holocaust survivor who taught him his name and how to learn. Impressed, the narrator decides to accept his teachings, returning to Ishmael's office throughout the story.
Imagine that three people are all touching a part of an elephant. The first is touching the elephant's leg and says that the elephant is like the truck of a tree. The second is touching the elephant's trunk and disagrees with the first, saying that the elephant is like a large snake. The third person is touching the elephant’s side and says that the elephant is like a great wall.
Chimpanzees portray their emotions through a number of facial expressions and mannerisms. Just like humans, they undergo mood swings, jealous rages, and laughter. For instance, Goodall observed during her research that a male gorilla “would threaten [me] with an upward and backward movement jerk of his head…” Some of their emotions are easy to read, while at other times we have to look at multiple places on their faces to understand their feelings. A chimpanzee also uses its facial expressions and sounds to communicate with each other, such as hoots and yells.
In order to show off how powerful one chimpanzee is, the male can swing, pull down the trees, drag them, throw sticks and stones, and stomp on t...
This threat lead to the government assembly. No gorilla knew what to do. Tahrem and Naveed suggested the country go to war against Rwanda once more since they were not recognizing the rights of such a prosperous nation. The country was now in the best position than it had ever been before. This idea then prompted the unanimous decision of the gorillas to vote Tahrem and Naveed to be in charge of the military. Little did the gorillas know that putting the couple in charge was perhaps the worst thing they could’ve done. Tahrem and Naveed were ready to fight against Rwanda and gain the country’s independence, even if it meant using the baby gorillas as soldiers. The decision was made for warfare to begin. “Ka-boom!” that was the sound of victory from the first bomb dropped on Rwanda.
In the article Dim Forest, Bright Chimps it talks about how close chimpanzees are to humans in terms of ingenuity. The authors first start the article by explaining how chimps would use stones or branches to crack open different types of nuts and how the chimpanzees know the right tool for the job. From here they go on to talk about how these chimpanzees would work as a group to hunt monkeys and that these chimps have a different method of hunting than other chimps. The last thing the authors talks about is how similar to humans chimps are when it comes to sharing food, using tools to get a job done, and working together to hunt. The article itself uses the group of chimps studied by the authors and the work of a person known as Jane Goodall to support their thoughts. This is relevant to human evolution because it tries to relate how our early hominid ancestors and chimpanzees were not that far apart in terms of behaviour.
Once upon a time there was a brother and sister living on their own. They lived in a small cottage house middle of nowhere. No one visited their house. Sacagawea and Lingo worked hard everyday. Sacagawea was sewing clothes inside the house while Lingo was cutting woods for the fireplace outside. Sacagawea the youngest sister told her older brother, Lingo “we need more leather.” So Lingo went to the other side to go find squirrels and deers. He got distracted and he was swimmed in the waterfall and had fun. After Lingo got done swimming and having fun he went to dry up at the top hill where you can see everywhere around you. As he was drying up, he saw a house made of candy. Lingo couldn't believe what he saw, so he went closer and closer. Lingo approached to the house and he
